Venn diagrams are used for comparing and contrasting topics. The overlapping sections show characteristics that the topics have in common, and the sections that are unique to each topic show the characteristics that apply to only that topic. This Venn diagram is comparing mechanical and electromagnetic waves. 2 circles with an overlap. The left circled is labeled Mechanical Wave with further labels Carry Energy Through Matter and Examples: Ocean Waves and Sound Waves. The right circle is labeled Electromagnetic Wave with further labels Carry Energy Through Space and Examples: Light and X-ray. What could be put into the center section of this Venn diagram? “Carry energy through space” and “Follow a pattern” “Carry energy” and “Follow a pattern” “Carry energy through space” and “Can be heard” “Carry energy” and “Can be heard”

electromagnetic shielding is the practice of reducing the electromagnetic field in a space by blocking the field with barriers made of conductive or magnetic materials. shielding is typically applied to enclosures to isolate electrical devices from their surroundings, and to cables to isolate wires from the environment through which the cable runs. electromagnetic shielding that blocks radio frequency electromagnetic radiation is also known as rf shielding.

the shielding can reduce the coupling of radio waves, electromagnetic fields and electrostatic fields. a conductive enclosure used to block electrostatic fields is also known as a faraday cage. the amount of reduction depends very much upon the material used, its thickness, the size of the shielded volume and the frequency of the fields of interest and the size, shape and orientation of apertures in a shield to an incident electromagnetic
